The autumn sun catches on the golden312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIG1X9ZE4W6
strands of her hair, and my heart312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTndNh5ARN
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvYWbPfQls
of summer foliage, and I break312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvE8Bb12vUn
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTtJYdszES
on my arm, and I try to regain312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tOrDrbPy6
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYEG5PPw1p
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzekQ6SQNgt
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrNE2wyvHT
is one more day." She always tells312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0uBxrEoky
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECPMx1G9vL
and yet we find ourselves 312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoR9Dm8STZb
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZBj2nP6ZY
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbgBKa0R0y
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcFH6KELNn
"just one more day" -- and I wonder312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDtEUjaWjH
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluIZFEmHU3
is colder than death -- and I wonder312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzgualPrik
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMISf3EnjgV
but I know time has finally 312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVuY1T7eVR
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRbUMMjbf7
and we lay down in the heap312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKh6xUtNaLD
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwrNaz6vjl
she tells me, and I die just a little312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsYWs802do
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZUBNdNFV8
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3zoMk0ZJB
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5oylRVhYG
Forevermore.
